anybody have favorite adhesives that they swear by? devcon epoxies and
gorilla glue are what i generally run to for bonding plastic/metal, but i
can't say that i've found anything that does an amazing job under normal
circumstances (it seems every manufacturer wants the two surfaces being
bonded to be perfectly cleaned/sanded and that's not always practical).

"Best" is a function of material to be glued. I use a few different
ones, but epoxy is one of the strongest for multipurpose use.

Cleaning the surface is a normal procedure. If you have a heaving
coating of dust or grease, the adhesive is going to stick to that, not
the surface. Simple physics. Makes for bad joints.
